    My chickens LOVE cucumbers, warm oatmeal (we live in Alaska) and watermelon. They arent huge on lettuce or kale...maybe in a few months when they havent seen grass in a while! ;)

    I have an OVER-ACHEIVING Chicken!

    My Black sex link occassionally lays a dinosaur egg too! It makes me feel bad! hahaha I love it though because my choc. chip cookie recipe calls for one egg and one yolk, and my double yolk eggs work perfectly! ;)
